We had a fantastic family get-together. This property was perfect for us. The pool was fun and good for kids! We enjoyed the outdoor sitting area a group gathering spot. The house itself is so special - with all the extras provided. I honestly have no criticism.

Luxury Historical Bradenburg House

Our stay was wonderful!! Everyone in our group of 10, from age 4 to 72, loved our 4 days at the house! Everyone wants to go back. The owners were very kind, helpful and responsive. The house is very clean, beautiful decor, an in-ground pool that has 2 depths; 2 1/2 feet (about 1/4 of the pool) and 6’ deep (about 3/4 of the pool), clean pool and lights up at night, large modern kitchen, large eating area, 5 bedrooms, 5 full bathrooms in each bedroom, 1 common bathroom, 2 beautiful porches, a large covered patio, fire pit, a charcoal barbecue pit and a privacy fence around the pool with an area of lounge chairs, table with an umbrella and a hot tub! We were happy to see a built-in rubber surface so my grandchildren and the adults would not slip on the wet surface. Owner Kirk met us at the home when we checked in and explained everything to us. . We thoroughly loved our time there and had a great l time. I fully suggest this home for you next vacation. . P.S. If you have a projector, you can sit on the patio and watch movies from Netflix or any service at night and project it on the white privacy fence! It was so nice to sit outside at night and watch a movie with all of our family!

My husband and I decided to do this for the love of hosting and entertaining. This 150yr old home was something we had thought about for many years. Recently we were able to take on the opportunity to make it a wonderful place for our community and share with others our passion of providing a wonderful stay, and experience the history & charm of Brandenburg, KY

Why they chose this property

Downtown Brandenburg, KY, is a quaint, historic gem along the Ohio River. Main Street buzzes with charm, featuring 19th-century buildings housing artisan shops, boutiques, and eateries. The street’s historic vibe, with elements like the old Meade Hotel’s stone foundation, blends with modern revitalization. You’ll find fresh produce at the Meade County Farmers’ Market. Steps away, the 15-acre Brandenburg Riverfront Park offers stunning Ohio River views, the Matthew E. Welsh Bridge, and Indiana’s wooded shores. With trails, picnic spots, an amphitheater, and soccer fields, it’s a community hub. The American Queen steamboat occasionally docks, adding grandeur. Events like the Summer Concert Series, Meade County Fair, and Christmas by the River Festival draw crowds. The park’s scenic beauty and role as a gathering place are what people love most. Locals and visitors praise its serene river views, perfect for walks or picnics, and its seamless connection to downtown’s shops and dining. This mix of natural splendor, historic charm, and community spirit makes Brandenburg’s riverfront unforgettable.
